[Plugin: WordPress Download Monitor] 3.3.3.4 Broken

  • Installed this update and it took all my blogs that use the plugin completely down.

    The php error that crashes the entire blog is:

    Fatal error: Call to a member function add_cap() on a non-object in /home1/dminorg/public_html/wp-content/plugins/download-monitor/init.php on line 54

    It’s a bit of a mess, because you can’t get into the admin panel to disable the plugin. SO you have to download a previous version, install that, then go in and DUMP THIS PLUGIN FAST.

    Init.php line 53 :

    global $wp_roles;
    if (is_object($wp_roles)) :
    $wp_roles->add_cap( ‘administrator’, ‘user_can_config_downloads’ );
    $wp_roles->add_cap( ‘administrator’, ‘user_can_edit_downloads’ );
    $wp_roles->add_cap( ‘administrator’, ‘user_can_add_new_download’ );
    $wp_roles->add_cap( ‘administrator’, ‘user_can_add_exist_download’ );
    $wp_roles->add_cap( ‘administrator’, ‘user_can_view_downloads_log’ );
    endif;

    Unsure why your $wp_roles was undefined, but this will prevent the error.

    This happened to me on a wpmu install. I upgraded the plugin from the dashboard of a user blog. When I tried to get to the root blog the error came up. The fix above works fine to get things working again across all blogs.
